As you move toward models with advanced features like infrared heating, multi-color flame customization, or realistic sound effects, the investment increases. Installation complexity is another major factor; a simple wall-mount unit costs less to set up than a custom recessed fireplace that requires framing or electrical wiring adjustments.
